Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them

Ezekiel 3:1:15
Son of man, go now to the people of Israel and speak my words to them. But the people of Israel are not willing to listen to you because they are not willing to listen to me, for all the Israelites are hardened and obstinate. But I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are.
Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious people.
The Spirit then lifted me up and took me away, and I went in bitterness and in the anger of my spirit, with the strong hand of the Lord on me.  I came to the exiles who lived at Tel Aviv near the Kebar River. And there, where they were living, I sat among them for seven days—deeply distressed.
From this point on it will be Ezekiel's life-mission to let God's people know that he is the Lord.
Why?
The scroll tested sweet, God's word is sweet and good to us. But people don't like to listen  becasue they are not willing to listen to God.
Exekiel felt distressed for seven days, because he knew this message will be rejected by his people.
Even knew it is hard to do, but for the command of the Lord, Ezekiel keep going on to speak God's word to his people.
How?
Do not be afraid of them or terrified by them, when God's Spirit lift me up I can say to them with Spirit. Preach God's word with strong brave and faith.
